Subject: [PATCH] nfit/ars: Avoid stale ARS results
Patch-mainline: v5.1-rc1
Git-commit: 78153dd45e7e0596ba32b15d02bda08e1513111e
References: jsc#SLE-5433

Gate ARS result consumption on whether the OS issued start-ARS since the
previous consumption. The BIOS may only clear its result buffers after a
successful start-ARS.
